Description
Handcrafted in Okinawa, Japan, this sculptural Ryukyu glass bowl reflects the island's renowned glassmaking tradition, inspired by Okinawa's crystal-clear seas and vibrant coral reefs. Created by Gendai no Meiko (Contemporary Master Craftsman) Matsuda Hideyoshi, each piece combines traditional craftsmanship with contemporary Japanese glass art.
Unique Piece Notice: This item is an authenticated, one-of-a-kind work of art individually handcrafted in Japan. Once sold, this exact piece cannot be duplicated.
Heritage
With over 40 years of experience, Matsuda Hideyoshi is recognized for preserving and advancing the art of Ryukyu glass. Individually hand-blown, every bowl features natural variations in color, pattern, and form, making each piece one of a kind.
Design
Inspired by the famous "Onna Blue" waters of Okinawa, the bowl blends soft ice-blue tones with deep ocean blue. A handcrafted clownfish appears suspended within the glass, while the rounded pedestal contains intricate marine-inspired murrini details, including coral, bubbles, and tropical sea life, creating the impression of a miniature underwater world.
